Hu Lai jumped off the kang (a heated brick bed) and ran out barefoot: "Qing'er, what's wrong?"
"Waaah... Doctor Uncle, my mother is bleeding, she's dying..." Mu Wanqing cried loudly.
Hu Lai was startled, picked up Mu Wanqing, and leaped over the wall.
Mu Wanqing was so frightened that she forgot to wipe her tears and clung tightly to Hu Lai's neck with her two little hands.
Two figures followed closely behind. Yun Lei glared at Baili Mingyue: "What's your hurry?"
"None of your business!" Baili Mingyue endured the pain of her wound reopening, a strange feeling rising in her heart.
Yun Lei glanced at Baili Mingyue with disdain, his heart filled with unease. Master, I have done my best... Lady Mo won't let me get close... No!
Shangguan Yichen's face was icy cold, his fists clenched. Bullying people! So what if you know martial arts?
The young boy came rushing over angrily, wishing he could kick the three eyesores away one by one. How dare they mess with their mother! They're asking for death!
Bai Ziming and Bai Yunfei were terrified and burst into tears. Mu Yunchuan looked anxious; why hadn't his sister returned yet?
Hearing the commotion, Hua Yueyao and Bai Yueniang had barely stepped inside when they were pushed away, making them furious.
"Mo Niang!"
"elder sister!"
"cousin!"
Mo Qingcheng frowned: "Breakfast hasn't been served yet, get out!"
Everyone: "..."
"No, Lady Mo, let me take a look at you..." Hu Lai put Mu Wanqing on the ground, stepped forward and stretched out his hand.
Hua Yunyao's eyes flickered slightly, and she sniffed, "Dr. Hu, my sister is alright."
"Qing'er can still lie to me, saying that Lady Mo is bleeding and about to die..." Hu Lai glared at Hua Yunyao in annoyance, then turned back to take her pulse.
Mo Qingcheng jolted awake and quickly sat up: "Cough cough... no... I'm not sick..."
"Mother, you smell of blood...it's so strong..." Mu Wanqing was at a loss, looking at Mu Wanqing cautiously.
Mu Wanqing was both amused and exasperated: "No, Qing'er... Mother is really alright, you all... go back to sleep."
"Cousin...it seems she can't sleep anymore..." Baili Mingyue looked over with schadenfreude.
The children were full of questions. What did their cousin mean?
Baili Mingyue felt a little guilty and didn't dare to make eye contact with the little guys, for fear of being beaten up.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward. A commotion arose at the door, and someone could be faintly heard saying that this was Lady Mo's house.
Mo Qingcheng glanced coldly at Hu Lai and Yun Lei, then said, "Take them away."
"No, Mother!" Shangguan Yunxi cried out in alarm, grabbing Mo Qingcheng's hand tightly.
"Xi'er, you're the eldest sister, take good care of your younger siblings. Hurry up, Mother promises everything will be alright." Mo Qingcheng's aura changed instantly, startling the five little ones.
Bai Ziming pouted, on the verge of crying, but Mu Wanqing covered her mouth tightly: "Do you want to kill your mother?"
Hu Lai and Yun Lei flashed by, each picking up two people and turning to leave.
Shangguan Yunxi glanced back at him: "Big brother, protect mother well."
Shangguan Yichen nodded, "You're so long-winded."
Mo Qingcheng instructed Bai Yueniang, "Sister Yue, go back and take good care of the two children."
“Sister Mo, I… am!” Bai Yueniang pursed her lips, turned around and walked out.
Hua Yunyao and Shangguan Mingyue exchanged a glance, hesitating to speak.
"The eldest son is the man who holds the family together; don't treat him like a child," Mo Qingcheng said softly, leaning lazily against the kang (heated brick bed). "What's meant to happen will happen. My cheap cousin, you can choose to leave..."
"I'll stay... just to see Lady Mo make a fool of herself."
As they were talking, a group of soldiers rushed in, and the leader was none other than Qi Yunshan.
"Lady Mo, please forgive me!"
